1 The Circle of Songs : Traditional Song and the Musical Score to C.P. Mountford's Documentary Films Anthony Linden Jones , 2014 single work criticism
— Appears in: Circulating Cultures : Exchanges of Australian Indigenous Music, Dance and Media 2014; (p. 45-72)

'This chapter interrogates the process of incorporation of traditional Aboriginal song into the context of musical underscore for two documentary films using Western orchestral instrumentation. I contextualise these practices in the history of ethnographic film-making in Australia and contemporary film scoring practices up to the time of these films and examine the impact of the limitations of recording technology on film composers’ interpretation of the songs. By placing the scores in their historical and cultural context and employing a range of analytic tools, I aim to consider how these acts of appropriation of culturally significant artefacts might be understood today.' (Introduction)
